Abstract

A number of mono-and bi-nuclear rhenium (I) complexes have been prepared and their physical properties, including the infrared spectra of the reduced complexes, have been studied. These compounds have the general formula [Re (CO) 3Cl (L)] and [Cl (CO) 3Re (μ- L) Re (CO) 3Cl], where L can be 2, 3-(2′, 2 ″)-diquinolylquinoxaline, 6, 7-dimethyl-2, 3- (2′, 2 ″)-diquinolylquinoxaline, 2, 3-(2′, 2 ″)-diquinolylbenzoquinoxaline, 6, 7- ...
